From one sticky situation to another prickly one,
Jon and Lina are back at it—stronger than ever.

This time, Jon and Lina are tackling a mission that hits a little too close to home—the search for Alanna Foster, the last missing teen, aka “Cactus Blossom.” With undercover missions intensifying and the clock ticking, mistakes simply aren’t an option. But while they’re chasing serial wedding crashers, tracking down a friend’s cheating spouse, and racing against time, the real battle is unfolding behind the scenes.

Grab your popcorn, ladies and gentlemen, and take a front-row seat to Jon and Lina’s attempts to rebuild their family—and Alanna’s harrowing journey through dual perspectives of both female protagonists. What really happened during the time she was gone? As Alanna’s story of kidnapping, survival, and resilience unfolds, a silver lining emerges that just might make the nightmare worth enduring.

With Alanna’s fate hanging in the balance and Jon and Lina’s relationship still a work in progress, they’ll discover that love, like their investigations, is a gamble—sometimes, you have to play to win. Can they rise to the challenge, or will the weight of the past derail everything? Join our favorite private investigators for a thrilling, witty, page-turning adventure in Operation Cactus Blossom, where the stakes are sky-high, but the laughs, heart, and hope never fall short.
